🌿 Skywalker OG — Week 4 Report
12/12 from seed
📌 Disclaimer / Timeline clarification
Before we begin, a quick note for transparency:
Last week, while compiling the reports, I unintentionally included some photos that actually belong to this week. That one’s on me. It’s fairly easy to notice which photos those are, and to avoid duplicating files, I’ll keep the correct visuals where they are while continuing to share this week’s genetics shots and videos as intended.
Thank you for the understanding — clarity and honesty always come first here 🙏

🌱 Week 4 overview
We are now in Week 4 of vegetative development under a 12/12 light schedule from seed.
The Skywalker OG girls are looking outstanding:
• Deep, lush green coloration
• Strong, healthy leaf structure
• Calm posture with no visible stress
• Excellent overall vigor
These plants are clearly happy and well-settled in their environment.
⸻
🌿 Structure & training notes
At this stage, the plants are reaching 7–8 nodes, with some approaching 9 nodes, and we’re beginning to see early branching.
Training so far has been:
• Gentle leaf tucking
• Light leaf bending
• No aggressive manipulation
• No intentional stress
The goal right now is simply guidance, not force — helping light reach lower sites while allowing the plant to stay relaxed and balanced.
Branching is happening slowly and naturally, which is exactly what we expect under 12/12 from seed. At this moment, the plants are still prioritizing root system expansion over top growth, and that foundation will pay off later.

🌱 Why growth looks the way it does (12/12 from seed)
A quick reminder for anyone new joining us:
Under 12/12 from seed:
• Vegetative growth is more compact
• Plants focus heavily on roots early on
• Structural decisions are made carefully by the plant
• Flowering does not start immediately
This is not a race — it’s a controlled, intentional build-up.
⸻
Nutrition & overall health
The current nutrition plan is clearly doing its job. Across the diaries, we’re seeing:
• Balanced green tones (no burn, no fade)
• Clean leaf edges
• Strong stems
• Consistent vigor
Every plant expresses herself a bit differently — autos, photoperiods, different genetics — but the overall health across the room is excellent, and that’s always the real metric.
⸻
🔮 What to expect next
Over the coming week(s), expect:
• Continued node development
• Stronger lateral branching
• Gradual shift toward pre-flower behavior
• Increased structural definition
What not to expect just yet:
• No heavy stretch
• No real flower formation
• No need for defoliation
• No drastic changes
Consistency remains the key.

🙏 Final notes
Huge thank you to everyone following along, observing, asking questions, and sharing this journey with us. It’s always a pleasure documenting these runs and learning together.
And of course, a big shout-out to the genetics from Zamnesia — each plant is showing her own personality, and it’s beautiful to watch.
The girls are doing great…
…and they definitely say hi back to you all 💚🌱

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine.
💚 Growers love to all 💚
📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens
All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more.
Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture.
I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back.
It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal.
You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.
